Yesterday Granddad didn't go down to get the mail. The driveway had turned into a skating rink as the drizzle of rain froze in a flash. He knew the mail was down there, and he was really impatient for it. I didn't offer to slide down to get it because I was elbow-deep in butter, sugar and flour. (Yes, all afternoon. And evening, too.) When T came home Granddad wanted to know why he hadn't stopped for the mail. "If I stopped," said T, "I wouldn't have been able to get up the drive." But he did go down to bring up what was in the mailbox.
